The Football League this week presented clubs with an ambitious online strategy. This will allow all 72 teams to stream matches not already being televised live on their websites to an overseas audience from 2017-18. Without the Premier League luxury of vast overseas sales for live games, the League will offer the streaming technology to every club — even if they don’t sign up to a seven-year plan allowing the League to run the websites centrally.

Not sure it would greatly impact home attendances, but could see away attendances suffering

It's already killed a lot of away attendances in the premiership due to every game being available via some illegal stream somewhere, but you're right...it might not have much of an impact on home attendances.

Slightly of topic, in my mind, it's mental that in the PL, if you're a Sunderland ST holder you can't watch them away at Swansea even though the game's being produced and aired live elsewhere and I know there has been very initial talks about a NBA Season Pass style product which is a no brainer I think.

Re the FL - the 300 or so hardy souls who go to Oldham on a Tuesday night are still going to go, but those who can't go, or don't wan't to, should, in this day and age, be able to watch the game live streamed for a small cost. It's dark ages stuff to think otherwise.
